Point-of-Use (POU) systems refer to faucets that produce water on an as-needed basis at the faucet, as opposed to whole house units which connect directly to the water main and treat everything that flows in from that pipe. The benefit of a POU system versus a whole house system is that with a whole house system, the incoming water is treated and then stored in a tank. Eventually it passes throughout the house. It is possible for the water to gather microorganisms and impurities during the time of water storage and eventually to glass. Generally, a POU faucet water purification unit is most likely to be found in the kitchen, but there is always use for one in the bathroom as well. A hot water POU is the perfect answer for the fast paced, instant gratification world we live in. It defines convenience: hot beverages; pre-heating water for cooking, heating baby bottles or even thawing. Bottled water is expensive to buy, creates a significant amount of plastic waste and litter and the carbon footprint of transporting those bottles of water is exploding exponentially. Setting up a Franke Filtration system in your home offers a much more ecologically sound and cost effective option for quality drinking water. While most filter systems require frequent replacement of plastic cartridges/housings, which can itself generate a considerable amount of plastic waste, Franke's perspective is different. By using long-life reusable filter elements made from natural and recyclable materials, we are able to cut down on waste as well as giving you better value for your money.
